  • Welcome to The UK Kit Car Club

    Heritage logo

    The Committee would like to congratulate Heritage Insurance on their 60th Anniversary in 2025

    The aim of the club is to help and support members during the build (and inevitable ongoing maintenance and modification) as well as to plan and organise events throughout the year. The Club attends the major kit car shows throughout the year providing a stand with tea and coffee, plus a BBQ with food for members. You'll be warmly received, especially if you bring more food and drink !! We also have stands at many other shows all around the country.

    It's not just shows though, our active area secretaries and members regularly arrange run outs and longer trips to such places as Le Mans, Wales and Scotland, plus the annual club camping weekend and the traditional “end of season” get together. Keep an eye on the events section of the forum for news and details of upcoming events.

    The Club also produces four magazines a year, exclusively for club members, filled with all manner of things club or motoring related, and members can get their own articles published in it as well if they wish.

    The Club is an independent organisation, and although we have our roots as the Robin Hood Owners Club and Register (RHOCaR), we are very much a club for all makes and model of kit car, so anyone can be a "Hoody", as it's all about the state of mind, not the car you drive! Being a member of The UK Kit Car Club has many benefits above those already mentioned. Members benefit from discounted insurance with nearly all of the specialist kit car insurers, and often find that the discount is more than the club membership fee. Membership also gets you full access to the forum, and a variety of other discounts such as with Euro Car Parts. You'll also find other members are willing to go well above and beyond for any other member they see is in need of help !

    So whether you own a Robin Hood, a GBS Zero, a Locost, an MK, a Westfield, a Caterham, (or any of the many other types of kit car), everyone can benefit from joining, so what are you waiting for ?

    The event has been running for 12 years, originally for kit cars with running boards, hence the name. Its a social weekend full of fun, driving skills, treasure hunt, music , quiz and raffle.

     

    Cost is £27 for a weekend pitch for 2 people, £2 per extra person per night.

    Day cost for non campers is £5 per car per day.

    Whiskey Run

    steve in stockport
    By steve in stockport,

    Paul M is hoping to organise a whiskey run over the border into Scotland in early September.

    Brief plan is drive up on the Friday, camp or travellodge near Carlisle, Saturday drive to Bladnoch distillery, pitch tents, drink whiskey, fall over, snore loudly.

    Sunday, leisurely drive back through either lakes or Yorkshire.

     

    Bladnoch Distillery

     

    Just gauging interest at the moment, so if you fancy it can you put your name below.

    Thanks.

    09.00 am,

    Russel came in with a last minute invite for all to have ago at the "Summer Auto test being run by the Basing stoke

    motor club on Saturday, basicly a chance to run a course "on grass" against the clock, entry is £15. 00 and is held at Arnolds farm,Whitchurch, Hants, for more info contact the club, so thats the weekend taken care of!although mine will

    consist of earning a few brownie points decorating!!!!

    all the best Malcolm.


    Battlesbridge Classic Car Show

    Guest rusty
    By Guest rusty,

    Hi :yahoo:

    All

    That time again Battlesbridge classic car show and autojumble,

    I would recomend an early start if you want to go judging by last year they were turning people away at 10.30-11.0am this has become a massive show well worth a visit.

    some members are meeting up in the pub car park opposite the exhibitors entrance at 9.0-9.15am.

     

    case you don't know Battlesbridge is off the A130 near Wickford Essex.

     

    cheers Rusty :hi:
